Orthodontic Treatment Planning: Optimizing the Smile and<br />
Facial Aesthetics<br />
Dr. Linda Taylor and Dr. Sara Shamloo<br />
Lecture Synopsis: The goal <strong>of</strong> the orthodontist is to achieve a functional<br />
occlusion but also to make our patients more attractive. We will analyze<br />
the smile and the face discussing the arrangements and proportions that<br />
are considered most aesthetic. Orthodontic cases will be shown illustrating<br />
treatment planning principles that can optimize dental and facial aesthetics for<br />
your patients. Ideal occlusions and excellent aesthetics can best be achieved<br />
in patients with ideal jaw relationships and perfectly proportioned teeth….but<br />
for everyone else there must be some compromises. We must be careful not to<br />
make choices that compromise aesthetics.<br />
Linda Taylor, DDS and Dr. Shamloo, DDS, are partners in an orthodontic practice<br />
in Coquitlam. Dr. Taylor graduated from <strong>UBC</strong> dentistry in 1982 and completed<br />
her orthodontic training in Toronto in 1989. Her special interest is facial<br />
aesthetics and the evolutionary reasons behind our aesthetic preferences.<br />
Dr. Shamloo graduated from dentistry in 1997 from McGill and completed her<br />
orthodontic training in 2005 at Western Ontario. Her Master’s thesis involved a<br />
study <strong>of</strong> lip aesthetics as influenced by an extraction or non-extraction treatment<br />
approach. Both Dr. Taylor and Dr. Shamloo share an almost obsessive interest<br />
in analyzing the facial aesthetics <strong>of</strong> their patients and tabloid celebrities which<br />
they feel complements their orthodontic practice.<br />
